Prelims

For this question, you may use the result \({{\left( \cos \theta +\mathbf{i}\sin \theta \right)}^{n}}=(\cos n\theta +\mathbf{i}\sin n\theta )\).

Find the exact value(s) of \(\theta \), where \(-\frac{\pi }{2}\le \theta \le \frac{\pi }{2}\), given that

\({{\left( \cos \theta +\mathbf{i}\sin \theta  \right)}^{3}}+{{(\cos \theta +\mathbf{i}\sin \theta )}^{5}}=-\frac{1}{2}-\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\mathbf{i}\).[6]
